I am, that works really well actually and it even knows when the same file was moved.

But to add new files to that external library, which is in fact the only main library. We need to dig in immich file structure which at the very least enforces different directories per individual user and also uses those to store some forms of metadata.

We tried sharing a user in the beginning but the app did not seem to like that.

Now its not the biggest deal, just an annoyance. the fix i am currently thinking is to move the immich directory to somewhere hidden and us systemlinks to get all uploads centralized under a single directory for further processing.

Very subjective but there is literally only one for me and its Navidrome

The one obstacle is you have to know how to selfhost, but i know for proxmox servers there are single line commands that will install and run everything automatically

• Free open source software.
• Free from enshitification
• You own the music and therefore you set the quality. (Supports flac)
• works with different players on different devices (open streaming protocol)
• no bandwidth when used local, and stays working at home even when there is no internet.

Why people pay monthly to then not even own music when you could use that same money to just buy music while having a better quality experience that cant be taken away is beyond me.

I am aware and actually use this but it appears too restrictive for our needs.

The structure we were already using cannot be recreated. Honestly i could live with the default. But my partner who is less into computers likes to make their own backups on external hard drives and uses shared network drives rather then the immich web viewer.

This does not help you but it makes me think of this:

I understand why it makes technical sense to do so but immich storing things in a database in general is more nuisance then practical.

We want those fotos accessible in our own file system where we have full control of what is what.

Immich job is to put the pictures from a phone to the server and also to display all pictures within a certain directory.

It does a good job at both. Having your own file structure is not a problem and it seem to even know and adapt if pics get moved around.

But we have to manually move the photos out of its own structure into our own every time we do a big upload.

Maybe i can set something up with syslinks so it all appears centralized as a big “upload” folder to be sorted.

Some of us don’t ???

Except plants, plants become TREE

Because the same people who might be forced to use this tool on the job are the same who like linux.

They do the same with powershell en vscode and you can just remote terminal from linux into windows.

Its a small investment in making developers more comfortabel with their toold and thus increase chance they will use them.

Value is not what is in the present but what could be in the future.

Judging from the boats. Are we sure it represents being submerged, fully under?

Looks like a floaty to me.

I am not sure whos advocate i am being here but theres class of vibe coding enthusiasts that get heavily demotivated by being told to do things a certain way.

The trade of for this chaos is. At least they how to code and participate in open source projects and once in a full moon some creative actually designs something nova and inspiring.

Then what do they do?

Life must be so boring to them.

Oh so all the time in different ways then?

Yeah that does check out actually.

Aware of social dynamics that are just not quite right.

Like the existence of billionaire celebrities.

Anyway i guess this thread does settle it. I take full responsibility for this mess of a comment chain.

The term i considered at one point a uniting concept of progressive values is dead. If it no longer conveys the message we want to express it becomes useless. Propaganda seems to have won that battle.

But a good thing, we are still here and we still seem aware of social dynamics that are not quite right, like billionaire celebrities.

I am saying what you said actually was in the original meaning.

Woke

Lies.

You cant be infected with malware if malware is already your default system of operation.

Just curious but how would these kind of people respond if you just reframed the semantics a little?

“Virginity test? I am not aware we have any of those?”

“Oh that kind of test? Those were found to be unreliable and have since been banned.”

“Even if i did perform it, which would be illegal. you still wouldn’t actually know. At best you have false of security, at worst”…. Oh Idk how to write this part without sounding condescending…. Daughter will need therapy.

So whats the news here?

That Ukraine was no longer receiving funding?

That his henchmen have stopped bothering to ask permission?

That some of his henchman listen directly to Putin?

It for sure can’t be “guy who can’t speak or hear 2 sentences without getting them confused was unaware of what was decided 2 months ago”?

Wasn’t half life alyx supposed to be 3 but title rebranded because overhyped expectations?

You are entitled to this but I don’t understand why it makes a difference if the icon is above or below the url here.
